It’s a bit of a neat touch to show mostly old Dopant suits used by the wannabe cult before Energy’s big reveal. Definitely makes it clear how Dopants have gone from “defcon 1 threat” to “on the level of a mugging”.

And I have to wonder if somewhere out there, there’s a world where Wakana decided to try and take her brother’s place as Nate as of reviving him… But that’s what fanfiction is for. Maybe I’ll tell that story some day.

And now, the actor trivia, which is more mixed, so I don’t have a title to go with.

The kid who spurs Shotaro to action is the same actor who played the kid version of Shotaro earlier in the series (and in Movie Wars Core), probably for bookends purposes.

His older sister is played by Yui Koike, who would later play Ahim de Famille/Gokai Pink in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger (one episode of which has the guy who played Kirihiko playing a villain of the week).

And finally, one of the thugs is another future Sentai vet. Shohei Nanba would later play Leo/ZyuohLion in Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger (though I doubt people would know it with the rather ridiculous looking wig he wears in that show)
